Xavier and Naomie Lusignan pick up more gold medals at Canadian Juniors

Two Mansfield-et-Pontefract siblings, Xavier and Naomie Lusignan, continued their tear on the weightlifting circuit, each taking gold and breaking records at the Canadian Junior Championships in Brossard Qc. this past weekend.

Naomie took gold in the 71 kg class, with a Canadian record in the snatch, as she lifted 92 kg (previous record 91 kg). Not to be outdone, Xavier also won gold and also broke records in the snatch and clean and jerk.

The dominant wins weren’t much of a surprise, as the pair had just come off wins at the Canadian Senior Championships last month.
